How do I choose the right size knee brace?
Use a tape measure and check the Thermoskin measurement chart on each product listing to select your size. A correctly fitted knee brace should feel comfortably snug, never too tight. Sizing charts are available on each product page and on the product packaging.
What's the difference between a knee sleeve, knee wrap, and knee brace?
A knee sleeve is a pull-on, seamless support offering even, all-round compression — good for general day-to-day wear. An open wrap brace uses adjustable straps for a customisable, firmer fit — useful where you need to fine-tune compression or accommodate swelling. Hinged/stabilising braces add rigid support for more significant instability, such as post-ACL injury.
Can a knee support or brace help with arthritis pain?
Yes. Thermal knee supports may help provide temporary relief from arthritis-related joint pain and stiffness. Thermoskin's Thermal Range features exclusive Trioxon® technology, which retains natural body heat while providing comfortable compression and support to the knee. This may help increase blood flow, relax surrounding muscles, ease stiffness and support more comfortable movement. If you have persistent or severe arthritis symptoms, consult your healthcare professional for advice.
